Bonnaroo’s Roo Clues | How’d We Do?

As you probably know, for the past 7 weeks Bonnaroo has been releasing lineup clues via haiku (some pieced together from 3 different sources, some hidden in a real-world location) called Roo Clues and we’ve been playing along to solve them. The festival JUST ANNOUNCED their official lineup, but, as with previous years, didn’t specifically match the Roo Clues to their correct answers. We did our best to recap our guesses and took a stab at the correct answers for the ones we missed. Check out how we did:

Roo Clue 13 | The Sheepdogs – Not only did we find it, we solved it! 10/13

Roo Clue 14 | The xx – The answer might have been Billy Idol, which we also explored, but unless they release the answers there’s no way to know. Both bands are performing, so we’re calling it correct. 11/14

FINAL SCORE: 11 out of 14. Not bad! This has been fun, guys. Let’s play again next year! Thanks for reading and commenting!
